Decoding the regulators influencing the epigenome

Chromatin epigenetic modifications are enriched at various  cis -regulatory elements, essential for spatiotemporal regulation of gene transcription. The epigenetic marks cooperate and interplay with different  trans -regulatory factors, such as transcription factor (TF) and RNA: on the one hand, modifications influence the chromatin binding of trans-factors; one the other hand, the trans-factors direct the deposition of different epigenetic signals. However, details of the crosstalk mechanism between the epigenetic marks and trans-regulatory factors have yet to be fully elucidated.

In the first half, I’ll discuss about the potential mechanism of how DNA methylation is regulated around the binding sites of CTCF, a highly conserved TF involved in 3D genome organization. By leveraging proteomic analysis, we found that multiple subunits of the nucleosome remodeling and deacetylase (NuRD) complex could bridge the interaction between CTCF and the TET DNA demethylases to mediate the CTCF-associated DNA demethylation. More interestingly, we showed that chromatin the binding of CTCF heavily depends on the NuRD complex. Depletion of NuRD severely abrogated CTCF binding and led to destruction ofthe chromatin high-order structures, revealing a novel role of the NuRD complex in 3D genome organization.

In the second half, a novel method termed Chrom-seq to identify chromatin associated regulatory RNAs (carRNA) around various epigenetic markswill be introduced. The method avoids using crosslinking and antibody-mediated capture, and thus substantially enhances the signal-to-noise ratio. By applying Chrom-seq to different cells, we systematically map RNAs at various chromatin marks and validatethe regulatory roles of some ncRNAs, endorsing the role of RNA in regulating the epigenome landscape.
